Greek mythology also includes a number of monsters and strange creatures such as the one-eyed Cyclops in the Odysseus story, a gigantic boar in the fabled Kalydonian hunt, sphinxes, giant snakes, fire-breathing bulls and more.
Best Answer: No they aren't the same. I was prescribed Oxycontin and Oxycodone because I have lung cancer. The Oxycontin was taken twice a day every day, and the Oxycodone was taken whenever I had breakthrough pain in between. The doctor switched me to Morphine Sulfate because the Oxy's weren't working that great.
According to my doctor, Oxy is not as strong as morphine. Oxy is a three a day medication, and morphine is a 12 hour med. I had to go off of Oxy, and onto morphine sulfate er because of the new oxy formula. It did not work, and it did not agree with me at all.
